What should I do if my child has dark yellow skin?

Children's skin is generally fairer and smoother than that of adults. White and tender skin is more beautiful, but some children's skin looks yellower and darker. Therefore, some parents are particularly worried that their children are so dark and ugly. What should they do? What causes this situation? Let's find out today.

There are two main reasons for babies' dark skin. One is genetic factors, and the other is acquired factors, including whether the nutrition is balanced, whether the sun protection is in place, and whether the daily skin care is done correctly. If you want your baby to have white skin, in terms of nutrition, parents can give their children foods rich in vitamins and hyaluronic acid, such as meat, vegetables and fruits. These foods can moisturize the baby's skin and make the skin shiny.

Also, don't expose your baby to too much sun. Although sunbathing is beneficial to the baby's bone growth and enhancing resistance, if the baby is overexposed to the sun, the combined effects of photoaging and phototoxicity will cause the baby's skin to increase in pigmentation, becoming rough and dark.

Mothers like to use a variety of skin care products to care for their baby's skin. Blindly using whitening skin care products may be counterproductive. Improper use of medication may also cause your baby's skin to darken. Many parents buy medicine and apply it to their children when they see that their children have eczema. However, they may apply it improperly. If medicine is needed for eczema, it is necessary to follow the principles of local, short-term and intermittent application. It is best to use it under the guidance of a doctor. The weather in winter is dry and cold, so your baby's skin may become dark and rough. If you pay attention to daily care, the skin will naturally improve when the weather gets warmer.

If some children have yellow and dark skin, it is caused by certain congenital factors. However, if they do not pay attention to their diet and eat too many foods with high pigment content such as carrots, it will also cause the face to turn yellow and dark. If you reduce the intake of such food, it will gradually be alleviated with metabolism.
